Criminally minded employees are bad for the bottom line in retail. Criminally minded employees are good for the bottom line in finance. The firms in question will filter accordingly.

GPT-oss-120B was also completely failing for me, until someone on reddit pointed out that you need to pass back in the reasoning tokens when generating a response. One way to do this is described here: https://openrouter.ai/

Ah so their names are just ARM64 registers. Now I get it.

I'm an engineer. I don't think I'm overselling the impact of them, I called the majority of them useless lol. I agree with everything else you wrote. Especially the bit about over promoted project managers. That's my thi

They’ve literally found cocaine at the White House and refused to persecute anyone for it. Rules for thee but not for me.

I purchased an Onn TV from Walmart for $25 and am very happy with it after 2 years of using it. Amazon is sentencing the Fire TV to irrelevance with these dumb decisions, just like the Fire Phone.

This is what we get for installing mandatory government backdoors all over our communications infrastructure. Unbelievable that such a critical piece of infrastructure wasn't secured properly. But after the OPM hack and the bungled imp

I had the exact same experience paying developers in Serbia. It was pretty eye opening to how unreliable something fundamentally important like wire transfers can be, and made me appreciate crypto in a new light.

Last I looked the TiKV Redis layers hadn't been updated in years, and were missing many Redis features (such as streams). https://github.com/yongman/tidis https://github.com/distributedio/tita

I've used RocksDB a lot in the past and am very satisfied with it. It was helpful building a large write-heavy index where most of the data had to be compressed on disk. I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with LMDB and ca

Interesting, I also had to solve this problem about a decade ago when writing a binary packer for Android .so libraries. I ended up moving the first few Pheaders around to make space for a new entry in the Elf32_Phdr table, and then used th

I've been wondering the same thing. However you would have to have a very large database of embeddings for this to be useful, right? Otoh I can see this being disproportionately helpful with reverse Engineering Rust and Go binaries, wh

For the mainstream OSes (Windows, OSX, Linux Android) You don't need to flush the instruction cache on most x86 CPUs after modifying the code segment dynamically, but you do on ARM and MIPS. This has burned me before while writing a bi

Stay strong and keep going. When they start kindergarten you'll have more time for yourself and things will get better, I promise.

The alternative is that the online games they're protecting become infested with cheaters, players depart, and the game closes down because it's no longer a viable business. It's not nice, I don't like running a kernel m

Ah I missed that part, thank you. The omission comment was tongue-in-cheek on my part.

100 languages and yet not a single use of Rust. The omission feels like a statement.

This is great! I did a project just like this one for my Master's thesis at University of Glasgow, although this project looks to be much more mature and advanced (plus it has users!): https://github.com/markoglasgow&#x

It takes a while to load on a slow connection, but then it works fine on my iPhone (IOS 18). This is an incredibly impressive demo of what Avalonia is capable of.

I’ve been using Triton a lot lately to make sense of heavily obfuscated code. The ability to translate a symbolic “trace” into an LLVM bitcode listing is super useful. You can do a lot of optimizations from there easily to recover the origi

Great answer, thank you. Another question: do you guys support trading of fractional shares in these custom indexes? If so, what's the smallest supported share % (eg 1%, or 0.01%)?

This is great, exactly what I was looking for, but how do I know I can trust you? I'm a bit hesitant to wire large amounts of money to a startup. Also, how do you make money?

The world has entered a mild recession, and many company leaders are panicking because they don’t know what to do. Their gut reaction is to “look busy” and overwork. Locally in Silicon Valley, many companies I interact with seem to be doing
